[Verse 1]

Is this who you are?

Do you need to be released?

Are you still in quiet, and holding out for a peace?

When the lights go out, will you be hanging around

For a glimpse of the hands that grazed yours in the crowd?

If you had never known the ways of the world

Would you be on your own, or would you need to be shown?

[Chorus]

Teenage pretender

Follow the leader

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

Everywhere I look I see a—

I see a—

Everywhere I look I see a teenagе

Pretender

[Verse 2]

Is this what you want

Or arе you running away?

Are you wild, and free, or hanging onto the fray?

When the road runs out will you be waiting around

For a body to hold yours to the ground?

If you had never left the bed your mother made

Would you still be the girl who got all the boys laid?

[Chorus]

Teenage pretender

Follow the leader

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

Everywhere I look I see a—

I see a—

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh—

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

[Chorus]

Teenage pretender

Follow the leader

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

Everywhere I look I see a—

I see a—

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

Everywhere I look I see a—

I see a—

Everywhere I look I see a teenage

Pretender

Everywhere I look I see a teenage pretender
